DEGA DARLINS

Hi Ladies.

I just wanted to compliment you on a GREAT first trip to start the winter guard season. I am very excited and I know that this is going to be a great year!

There were so many things great about Saturday. You eagerly came to Ellis on Saturday morning bright and early, ready to go. We got everything loaded in a timely and efficient manner. Then upon arriving in Lawrenceburg, TN, you were very patient and got things done as they needed to be. Ignoring the obstacles and challenges. You worked hard all the way down to even taking the floor up and down the stairs.

The performance that you gave was full of emotion and outstanding effort; A great 1st performance no doubt. The focus and effort you showed during warm-up and the performance was amazing. I am so proud of each of you. You have been presented many challenges this year and you are clearly taking on each one with a vengeance. This is what makes a great TEAM! The dedication, teamwork and class that you portray all the time will only make you one of the best teams around!

I know that this is going to be an amazing season. I have listened to the tapes and reviewed the scores and will share information with you on Tuesday. Lots of great things! Brian commented that incomplete shows get incomplete scores and he is so right. Is was field day and you did what you were expected to do to get the first show under your belt. Now let's focus on the next task at hand Oak Grove... woo hoo! It starts Tuesday at Practice.

Check the calendar for practice times and details this week and next. Click on the actual listing and it will take you to the details. Honor band people should have time to audition before practice.

See you there!
